After a while, we came back to the deserted park where I first met Ariel-san. If weāre going to do as Ariel-san says, weāll be dancing from now onā¦ā¦ and even after all this time, Iām still wondering. What should I do?
Even though Ariel-san said that she will be leading me, my dancing experience is limited to the few ballroom dances with Lilia-sanā¦ā¦ Moreover, Iām being completely led by Lilia-san.
Adding up to that, the way Ariel-san was dressed, I had a feeling that even if weāre also dancing, I feel like it would be different from ballroom dancing, but in that case, I was completely helpless.
[No need to be nervousā¦ā¦ In other words, you donāt have to be so uptight. No spectatorsā¦ā¦ In other words, no one else will be able to see you because Iāve put up a barrier.]
[E- Even if you say that, Iām really inexperiencedā¦ā¦ so Iām not sure if I can dance well.]
[You donāt need toā¦ā¦ In other words, you donāt have to dance well, nor do you not have to try to dance well.]
[They arenāt importantā¦ā¦ In other words, it is not necessary to dance well or beautifully. Whatās best is to have funā¦ā¦ In other words, I think whatās most important in dancing is to have fun. Whatās important is the heartā¦ā¦ In other words, you donāt need to have music, nor do you need to know the steps. Delineation is unneededā¦ā¦ In other words, you donāt need to precisely portray the dance, nor do you have to think about any meaning. Conclusionā¦ā¦ In other words, if you move your body along with a heart filled with fun, it would already be a great dance.]
The smile on Ariel-sanās face as she said that was very gentle, and I could tell that she really liked dancing herself.
At the same time, I could feel that she wanted me to enjoy it as well, and I felt my shoulders naturally relax.
Seeing this, Ariel-san nodded and standing in front of me, she gently took both of my hands and lightly pulled me close.
When I took a step forward due to my body being pulled, Ariel-san also stepped forward, and our bodies intersect with each other.
It feels rather strange. Ariel-san didnāt tell me to move like this or take that step, but she pulled my hand, stepped towards me, and moved her gaze to guide my eyesā¦ā¦ How should I say thisā¦ā¦ My bodyās movements naturally became like a dance.
Even though she shouldnāt have said a word, I feel as Iām being led, which probably means that Ariel-san had the skills to achieve such a featā¦ā¦ At the same, I felt that if I used Sympathy Magic, I would be able to match Ariel-sanās movements better, so I consciously used Sympathy Magic.
Thereupon, after Ariel-san raised an eyebrow, she smiled and her body moved faster.
And at the same time, the feeling of being guided became stronger than before, or perhaps, I was able to naturally understand how I should move next.
W- Whoa, how should I say thisā¦ā¦ This is quite fun. Before I knew it, Ariel-san let go of my hand, but I could still clearly feel how I should dance.
Ariel-san gradually sped up her dance movements, and my body movements naturally became faster as well. From the initial relaxed feeling, before I knew it, I could feel that I was moving quite a bit.
I felt tired, or rather, my breathing became a little uneven due to the intense movements, but strangely enough, it also felt uncomfortable. Itās like my body is getting hotter from the insideā¦ā¦ If I had to describe it, Iād say I was āgetting into itā.
I feel as if I can hear music that shouldnāt be there, and Iām so focused on this moment that I feel it was just me and Ariel-san in the world.
As I was feeling like I could clearly see Ariel-sanās fingertips as she fiercely dancedā¦ā¦ Ariel-san suddenly stopped moving and I stopped along with her.
[Slight restā¦ā¦ In other words, donāt dance too long. Hydration is recommendedā¦ā¦ In other words, youāre sweating like crazy, drink this.]
When Ariel-san offered me what seems to be a canteen, I finally realized that my body was drenched in sweat. On the contrary, I was so focused at the moment that I didnāt notice it until she told me.
Becoming aware of my tiredness, I also felt heavy fatigue weighing down on my body, and spontaneously sitting where I stood, I drank the water from the canteen that Ariel-san had given me.
[It was a great danceā¦ā¦ In other words, you danced better than I thought. You have talentā¦ā¦ In other words, you have so much talent in dancing that I canāt believe youāre a beginner.]
[ā¦ā¦Haahhhā¦ā¦ T- Thanksā¦ā¦ However, I think itās because Ariel-san led me well.]
[I wonāt deny thatā¦ā¦ In other words, I certainly lead you to dancing and helped you focus your attention. However, that isnāt all there is to itā¦ā¦ In other words, I also felt like there was something else. A sense of expressionā¦ā¦ In other words, your expression of emotions was so wonderfully beautiful and well-conveyed. Great admirationā¦ā¦ In other words, it was a really nice dance.]
I couldnāt help but feel embarrassed when I saw Ariel-san praising me with the biggest smile she had today. How should I say thisā¦ā¦ When someone praise me this much, even though it feels ticklish, it makes me feel happy.
She mentioned how my expression of emotions was beautiful, but I guess it was the influence of my Sympathy Magicā¦ā¦ No, waitā¦ā¦
My expression of emotions was wonderful and well-conveyed? Could it be that? It was just like what many people have told me since I came to this worldā¦ā¦ that āIām wearing my emotions on my faceāā¦ā¦
H- Hmmm, I seeā¦ā¦ I have mixed feelings about this, but it seems that what I thought was a flaw can also be unexpectedly praised as a talent.
Serious-senpai : [ā¦ā¦I see, the fact that heās wearing his expressions on his face could also be interpreted as good at expressing emotions huhā¦ā¦ In addition, since he has Sympathy Magic, he might be good at dance, theater, or anything that needs you to appeal to the heartā¦ā¦ Speaking of which, back in his birthday, Alice said that he was a pretty good singer.]
Makina : [As expected of my beloved child! However, that looks nice. I want to dance with my beloved child tooā¦ā¦ Hahh! Thatās right! I got an idea!!!]
Serious-senpai : [Stop, donāt raise trouble flags here!]
